Alpha King of Fire

DEADLY DARK LOOK

9 months later…

FIRA’S POV

“King Fire is here!”

I was watering the flowers in our front yard when I heard that. I held the bump in my belly as I looked at my surroundings.

He’s here? Why?

“Fira.” I turned my back. Janus was staring at me with his dark expression. “Go inside.”

I nodded my head as I walked to the door. He wrapped his shoulder around my waist. “Don’t go out until I order.”

I moved my head up and down. In my stay here at the Red Moon Pack, everything went well. Life was quiet. They did not even ask me to do household chores. There was always someone who would do that. What made me annoyed was that Caroline lived inside our house. Her room was beside our room. Janus needed her at night. I was not jealous, it was grateful for me, but sometimes she was too spoiled as if she was Luna.

“I’ll ask Clero to bring you the herbs. Just go to the room and take a rest.” He went to the kitchen, when he came back. He had a glass of water. He gave it to me.From NôvelDrama.Org.

I liked to ask why King Fire was here. I shut my mouth as I saw his look. He was not in the mood.

“Stay here. Understand?” He bent down, kissed my lips and touched the bump of my belly. He touched it with a small smile on his lips. I averted my look as I saw the spark of happiness to his eyes. He believed that this child was his.

I watched him walking to the door. I managed not to look at the window to see King Fire. It did not matter anymore.

I just went to the kitchen and started to cook. Even though Janus ordered me to stop doing something, I was uncomfortable. In my entire life, I grew up doing many household chores. I could not stop.

“It’s not suit you to be a Luna.”

I turned around to face my back as I heard the voice of Caroline. I was not in the mood to argue with him. The baby in my mood was going to move out for about a week from now.

I was about to ignore her by walking towards our room, but she held my arm. “Why can’t you die! You don’t love him, do you?”

I shook my head and gave her a small smile. “I love him.”

I was not lying when I said that. I truly love him, but not the way I love my Dearest, my King. It has been a month and I have been longing for him. I could not do anything about that though. I was living in peace now, I wished he had the same thing in life. I just heard some news that he was the great king in battle, protecting the Elemental Kingdom.

Caroline tightened the hold on me. “You stole the Alpha from me and I swear-”

“What? Revenge? Kill me? Go on. I’m not scared to death.” I moved closer to her face. “Just do it after I give birth.” I left her with her gritting teeth. She always likes that, threatening me, but not doing anything to harm me.

Weak Mistress.

I touched my belly as it kicked. A huge smile formed on my lips as I gently massaged it. “Are you excited to go out, huh?” I talked as if it was going to answer.

I opened the curtain in the room while touching it in an up and down direction. The happiness could be seen from my face. “I’m so excited, too. I want to see you.”

I looked down and watched the kicking of the baby. Little by little, the force was high. “Oh? I think you’re a good kicker? Or maybe a good dodger?”

My eyes went to the window, I was startled as I saw that King Fire was looking in my direction. He was standing outside. When our eyes met, he stayed staring at me for a second.

Pyro?

Dearest, I hope I can tell you that we have a child.

A sad expression drew on my face. There was no conversation, distance was a bit far, staring intensified. His gaze went down to my belly. I could not read what his expression was, it was just blank. Nothing. As if I never meant to him.

I heard the creak of the door. “Fira, gave you eaten?” It was Janus walking towards me. I felt the embrace from my back. Suddenly, he was surprised when he noticed that King Fire was outside.

Pyro just nodded on him and started to walk forward. I prohibited myself to look at him again. It was hard to forget seeing him leaving.

“Don’t gaze at him like that, Fira. You don’t want to make me mad, right?” There was an emphasis to his words.

I moved my head up and down. “I just want to say hello. He was my king-”

“I’m your Alpha! Keep that in mind.” He held my shoulder.

The dread crawled all over my system as I saw how dark his expression was. The last time he was mad, I almost writhed in pain. I worried so much for my child.

“Understand!” He clenched his jaw.

“Yes.” My voice was just low. His hands were hurting me. I hope that he stopped doing that.

I’m 9 months pregnant! Crap!

He threw me on the bed. “Drink the herbs after you eat. I’ll be home at night.” He turned his back on me, grabbed his jacket and headed to the door. “Lock the door. I didn’t want to hear that you go out again.”

“Yes, Alpha.” I managed to sit on the bed while holding my belly. I thought he would change. That hope would not happen.

He gazed back at me again. I could see the old Janus, somehow, sometimes, he came back to himself, to my good friend. However, maybe that was him now and I could not do something about that.

He was about to leave. I thought he remembered something. He came back to me, knelt down on the floor and kissed my belly. Then, he went up and kissed my forehead.

The tears crawled to my cheek. It was not easy to deal with his attitude. I had no clue until when he would be ruthless and until when he would be a kind loving husband.

He wiped the tears. “Don’t cry. I won’t do that again.”

I could not name the numbers of him saying the same line. He did not mean it.

“Just don’t piss me. Okay?” He sat on the bed and hugged me so tight. “Just don’t trigger my anger. We’ll be at peace.”

In the middle of the embrace, we heard a knock. He went to the door, annoyed. “What?”

“King Fire said? He scratched his head. There was a hesitation for him to say the words.

“Said what?”

“Ahm? He cleared his throat before continuing. “Hurt Fira again, he’ll burn your pack.”

I was startled in shock. I looked at the window quickly. There he was, standing from the far with his deadly dark look.
